The Yautja species, otherwise known as Predators (Yautja stellaris honorabilis) are known for participating in ancient hunts for Xenomorphs (Alien vs. Predator, and Alien vs. Predator Requiem).
Behavior[]
They are best known for their tendency to hunt other species for sport.
Biology[]
Their appearance is comparable to early mammal-like reptiles on Earth. However they also have dreadlock-like tentacles on their heads. Another well known feature is their divided mandible-like bottom jaw. A feature possibly evolved to intimidate their enemies. Aside from the sharp teeth inside their mouths, they also have four outer teeth attached to their jaw bones.
